It is no longer news that no business can grow or advance to become a very big business without making use of the internet. It is not possible to apply internet to business without having a website, which has to be hosted on a server. When it comes to the issue of web hosting there are three main approaches The first way is to host your website on a shared server. This simply means that your site is hosted along other sites on the server of a web hosting company.. This option saves you money, and it is not a bad choice if your site would not generate a minimum traffic of 10,000 visitors in a day. However, if your site generates this kind of traffic, your site would be consuming most of the bandwidth and you will most likely be causing serious problems for other users, so the administrator of the shared server could start of by choking your site, or they may even go a step further to disabling your website once in awhile and they may finally ask you to leave just to protect other users that are sharing the server with you. Virtual server hosting is the second option With this plan you still get to share the server with other users, but the server is partitioned to make you independent. Additionally, the population of users on virtual servers are relatively small compared to the number on shared servers. However, this option is a more expensive than the first option, and you still have to worry about, sharing Disk space, CPU speed and some other issues. Getting dedicated servers is the third plan and that is the peak of server hosting. By using a dedicated hosting solution, you ensure that your site is the only one being hosted and you also have complete access to the server This plan happens to be the most the most expensive server hosting plan, but it is the best bet for any site that would generate a very high traffic. A dedicated server keeps your data secure and safe. Your data is safe due to the fact that you are a priority customer to the server company, so even though you have complete freedom with your dedicated server, they still stick around to ensure that you have the very best of their services. And this includes that fact that your data cannot be lost or stolen. Your data cannot be stolen because the server is normally located offsite, so there is no way for employee espionage. Another thing is that the server is usually monitored by a team of dependable specialists, so that no one would break into your server and steal your data by remote In the advent of power outage, there is always a standby power generator that usually kicks into action automatically so that there is no disruption in the activities of your server The server is always placed in an optimal environment with HVACs so that it functions effectively all the time. The main point is that your data cannot be possibly lost, and if something like that do happen, they have taken some proactive measures that would ensure speedy recovery of the data.
